[QUOTE="Frankensuby, post: 2432004, member: 569869"] I've got the box together, sub in and wired to 4 ohm, and it is bridged into an Audiobahn amp (in sig). The thing that worries me is that it is getting roughly 130 RMS (well below limits) and I had to turn the Bass boost on to get any sort of real response. The bass boost is at 45 hz +18 and I'm keeping the volume knob down to keep from clipping early caused by the bass boost. Also, the HU can't HPF for just the front set, so I am keeping it down to stop distortion/clipping in the front set. Is the bass boost gonna do damage even if I am conservative with volume knob? On a side note, it sounds mean with only a little power to it [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/naughty.gif.94359f346c0f1259df8038d60b41863e.gif[/IMG] ~Levi [/QUOTE]
